female G.I. problem???

i'm a 21 y.o. female who has a history of a mild peptic ulcer, allergies, and colitis 2 years ago. for 5 days now i have had stomach pain, bloating, dark stool, abdominal cramps, nausea, and now i have a brownish vaginal discharge. i'm on birth control but took a preg. test. came out neg. thought i was constipated and took an enema. not constipated anymore but still have all other signs and symptoms. i'm thinking this could be some kind of ulcer or mild G.I. bleed but i have never heard of a vaginal discharge associated with a bleed. can anyone help? called DR. but he just told me to go to the ER. i dont feel it is severe enough to go.

I had them symptoms after my daughter was born went thru a series of tests upper G.I, colonoscopy, and the tube down the throat.I was diagnosed as having moderate/severe Acid reflux, IBS, hietal henrnia. I was at my wits end tired of taking Zantac 4x's a day. Went to an OB and she treated/tested me for Endometriosis. She gave me three options of B.C. IUD, The patch and pills I chose IUD and have not had ONE symptom since last septemeber. Still have to be careful of what i eat. Did you know that Endo is one of the most under diagnosed symptoms/disease.. NOT saying this is what you have but something that you could definitely look into

What you eat is very important to your overall health.
